I suspect you could get many consecutive sunlit passes from near the N or S pole, near the equinox, for polar-orbit satellites with inclination close to 90 or 270 degrees. E.g. in late February for the N pole, the sun is about to rise for polar spring. Most or all passes will be sunlit. Same in early October, as the sun is sinking further below the horizon.
